Step-by-Step Instructions for 10-Minute Apple Carrot Oatmeal
  1. In a medium saucepan, add 1 cup of rolled oats, 1 cup of grated carrots, and 1 cup of diced apples. Pour in 1 cup of plant-based milk and 1 cup of water. If using maple syrup or honey, add it now, along with a dash of cinnamon and a splash of vanilla extract.
